Wu Liren nodded, he naturally knew this truth, because the later Taizu once said that classic sentence, Wu Liren laughed and repeated it: "It is advisable to chase the poor with the remaining bravery, and not to become a famous overlord!" ”

After listening to this, Pang Tong sorted out this sentence in his mind again, and then praised: "A good sentence should be left to chase the poor, not to sell the name of the overlord, the ambition of the lord, non-idle people can know it!" I have always heard that the lord is a civil and military all-rounder, he can cross the horse and write poems when he gets off the horse. ”

At this moment, another voice sounded, "Sure enough, it's a good poem!" My lord is a hero! ”

Wu Liren and Pang Tong followed the prestige, and when they saw Wang Shouren walking in, Wu Liren smiled, and then introduced Pang Tong to Wang Shouren to get to know him, and after talking for a while, Wang Shouren continued: "Congratulations to the lord for getting a high talent again!" Now I have good news, I heard that Yuan Shao and Ma Teng are not convinced that Zhu Wen, a bandit who is in power and opposition, has raised troops to prepare to crusade against Zhu Wen, so that the lord can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! ”

Xu Du.

When Zhu Wen heard that Ma Teng and Yuan Shao were canonized by the Son of Heaven, they even had to make a big move and raise troops to attack, and they couldn't help but be angry, but now that their own princes, only Wu Liren seemed to be quiet for a while, Yuan Shao, Ma Teng, and Cao Cao, who was still active everywhere, were all Zhu Wen's troubles.

Above the court, Zhu Wen had no choice but to discuss this matter with the civil and military forces. Because Zhu Wen had just gained power, and there were crises all around, he didn't do anything excessive, and the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials were quite satisfied with Zhu Wen's performance. So when Zhu Wen mentioned how to retreat from the enemy, everyone still worked together and began to think of countermeasures.

At this time, Yang Biao got up and said: "Your Majesty, Ma Teng was originally a loyal minister of the Han family, and the original intention of raising troops this time was to support the Han family and kill Cao Thief." Now that the Cao thief has been defeated, it is better for His Majesty to issue an order for him to return. The old minister is willing to carry the edict and persuade Ma Teng to withdraw with his incorruptible tongue, so that he can go all the way to the army. ”

Yang Biao is still a lieutenant now, although Wu Liren asked Zhu Wen to take the position of lieutenant, but in order to buy people's hearts, Zhu Wen showed Yang Biao Wu Liren's performance by the way, and resolutely said that he would not be this lieutenant. Yang Biao was grateful, and at the same time asked Liu Xie to crown Zhu Wen as the secretary, and was willing to do his best to share Zhu Wen's worries.

Zhu Wen nodded and continued: "What Taiwei Yang said is extremely true! Please send an edict to the Son of Heaven quickly! And Wu Ming and Cao Cao were rivals, so Wu Ming and Cao Cao would inevitably fight for a while. If this is the case, then the enemy on all sides is only Yuan Shao's ear! If Yuan Shao is still unwilling to withdraw his troops, then let Ma Teng recruit Yuan Shao in the name of King Qin. In this way, the Han family can be guaranteed to be worry-free for the time being, what does the Son of Heaven think? ”

was said by Zhu Wen, Liu Xiexi suddenly smiled, he now knows very well that it is good to be able to get a temporary stability, everything else is not important, he has experienced too many things, I just hope that Zhu Wen can treat himself like a son of heaven.

"Then according to Sikong and Taiwei's words, I, this is an edict!"

I don't know if it is Yang Biao's prestige of the Yang family, or Ma Teng's ears are soft, after Yang Biao's envoy, Ma Teng immediately stopped the army, but instead drank Ma Huanghe, and pointed the soldiers directly at Zhang He's rear sour date Yanjin, which made Zhang He have to temporarily withdraw the army to guard against Ma Teng.

And outside the city of Xudu, Yang Lin was in the camp, and Yang Lin was meeting a person, who was begging Yang Lin bitterly.

"Er Zhurong, you traitor, you dare to go back to Xudu!"

The person in front of him was Er Zhurong, but at this time, Er Zhurong was facing Chen Qingzhi's pursuers, and there was no way to escape. He didn't dare to go back to Xudu directly, so he came to Yang Lin's garrison camp first, and wanted to ask Yang Lin to defend himself.

"Houhou Mingjian! The last general really didn't betray, otherwise he wouldn't be as embarrassed as he is today! At the beginning, the general was ordered to garrison Xiangyang, but there were only 5,000 old and weak soldiers in Xiangyang City. After Cao Ren was defeated and fled, he did not return to Xiangyang, and the last general could not hold it alone, so he thought of fleeing with the people, and he did not have the slightest idea of daring to betray the Son of Heaven. The last general is deeply favored by the Son of Heaven, how dare he betray the Son of Heaven, please rely on the Marquis of the mountain to see it! ”

Hearing Er Zhurong's words, Yang Lin also began to think, after all, he had guessed that Jia Kui had said that the news of Er Zhurong's betrayal was also speculated by Cao Ren, and now that he heard Er Zhurong's defense and the situation detected by the spies, he had basically believed Er Zhurong's defense.

"I heard that General Erzhu has good skills, and he even retreated twice under the attack of the white-robed army, which is really enviable. The old man accepted Lu Fang, Xue Liang, Li Wan, Suo Chao, Li Xin and Shi Lang as his righteous sons, and he was called the sixth Taibao. I see that General Erzhu has extraordinary skills today, and I want to accept you as a righteous son and the Seventh Taibao, I don't know what General Erzhu wants? ”

When Er Zhurong heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't have any opinion on worshipping Yang Lin as his father-in-law, after all, Yang Lin is now one of the top forces in the DPRK, but this Seventh Taibao, he always feels that his status is a little low.

"General Erzhu, as long as you worship me as your father-in-law, I will definitely be able to keep you innocent and promoted, which is what many people dream of!"

Er Zhurong was ruthless, and immediately bowed down and bowed: "Er Zhurong greets his father-in-law!" ”

Yang Lin laughed and said: "General Erzhu is indeed a person who knows the times and is a handsome man, okay, I will give the Son of Heaven a table now, and show you as a general of Wuwei." Don't look at it as just the Seventh Taibao, as long as you can make meritorious contributions, your future future will definitely be much stronger than that of the Great Taibao Lu Fang! ”

Hearing Yang Lin's words, Er Zhurong turned his worries into joy and dispelled the doubts in his heart.

Er Zhurong's appointment came down, and at the same time, Yang Lin also received an order to lead his troops to Runan, waiting for an opportunity to drive Guo Kan and Ran Min's army out. Because now Ma Teng was persuaded by Yang Biao to raise troops to threaten Yuan Shao, and directly restrained the soldiers and horses of the two sides; And Cao Cao and Wu Liren, and even Yuan Shang, Liu Bei and others who attacked Qingzhou, are enemies, and they are not to be afraid. Now Xu Du's enemy, only Wu Liren is the greatest threat; Once the war broke out, Guo Ran's army would be able to attack the city of Xu in a few days, posing the most direct threat to Liu Xie and Zhu Wen.

This time, Yang Lin gathered Er Zhurong's army, as well as the newly recruited soldiers and horses, He Ji gathered a total of 20,000 troops and moved to Xihua County, Runan County. And Xihua is adjacent to Ruyang, where Guo Kan is stationed - Ruyang is the closest to Xudu, and only by defeating Guo Kan in Ruyang first is fundamental.

"There is an order, let me be careful and not have too much conflict with Wu Ming's army, after all, Wu Ming is not our opponent now."
